Re: Petit Oppy - Any Girls interested?

There was a full womens team on the last oppy. They don't come on BNA tho best bet is to turn up to an Audax event and find them

I also am aware that there are a lot of WA women on these forums and perhaps this thread might encourage other women to participate in Audax events.

If I could ride for more than 20km without turning into a wheezing, sweaty mess I would be in. Maybe I can start training for the one in 2014!

I've just forwarded this to someone who was also talking about a ladies team, there were mumblings about being maybe 3 riders interested, looking for a 4th. But I'll let her sort that out.

I currently have interest from 3 interested parties (4 including myself and 1 man).

I am thinking it may be possible to form two teams - a sort of beginers team to do the 180km (petit) and a more advanced team to do the 360km (Opperman All day Trial)

So that being said, if you're a women in WA and think you can't make it to 180km, ride a road bike and are dreaming that you can... then you should email me and we'll get you to 180km.

I now have 7 people interested in the 360km Oppy, so I'm asking if ANYONE else is interested (perhaps another three), any gender is fine.

I'm now at about 8 riders, trying to con a chick into doing the 360km over the 180km, on the basis that she's allowed to ditch her team after 200km (so that means we would have 9), I will ride with people all week, to get their confidence up, as long as there is a bakery, I'm happy to ride my bike on adventures!!!!

So I need one more person.... is that you?

I would be interested in the 180km, depending on how hilly it is.

If I end up doing it, the only hills will be down hills

It's going to be a flat route most likely. Maybe some little bumps tho.
